Why it was refused

  1. The proposed garage, by virtue of its size, siting and design would result in an obvious and incongruous addition that would appear both at odds with the character of the street scene and the character of the locally listed building at the site, to the detriment of visual amenity and heritage value. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies ST1 and HG7 of the ALPR (2002), Parts 12 and 16 of the NPPF (2024) and the Residential Extensions Design Guide SPD (2014).

From the council's decision notice.
